well,
no surprise...I cried for the full length of this movie...I knew I would.....and I am not exageratting, from the moment I sat, until they turned the lights on, I didn't stop....there were a couple spots that I was afraid I was going to sob right out loud !! I think the entire audience was the same way.
It was great acting....I think they all did a fabvulous job. For those that loved the book....it didn't stay fully true to it.....big spoiler.....don't read if you don't want to know.....but the movie has a different ending than the book ! I for one, didn't like the book ending....but expected it and wasn't sure I liked the movie ending.....
Some things were different....son wasn't nearly as dysfunctional as he was in the book....court and lawyers played much less a part than they did in book. No Guradian Ad Litem and she was pretty important in the book. Most of the movie was flashbacks and the court stuff was minimal.
Anyone else see it ? The theatre was packed....I was surprised...a Wed. night....and packed....lots of teens...I didn't expect that !
Anyone else see it ?
